Vicky and Alex – Sunset Bay Grand Cayman

Posted in Recent Weddings, Wedding Customs No comments

I have known the Joseph family for many years, and you could say without hesitation one of the warmest loving families in the Cayman Islands. So when Vicky  called to let me know she was getting married and gave me her date (preceded by Mandy and Diana on the very same day:)talk about excited girls!!!!) I thought I was going to “bust a gut”! I was so excited, thrilled, privileged and honoured to get to tell the story of Alex and Vicky’s wedding. The bride got ready at the gorgeous Ritz Carlton, when her parents walked in I think everyone had a bit of a cry including  hair and makeup. Then off to the private residence of Sunset Bay, an amazing ocean side home with expanse gardens. When Vicky walked down the aisle under the Casaurina trees, Alex was biting his lip, poor chap, trying to keep calm, I thought his chest was going to pop! When they arrived at the end of the aisle, Mr. Joseph was to hand over his daughter, he kissed her hand elegantly! I made the mistake of looking at the bridesmaids, well needless to say they were gushing…… ohhhhh Great…. “I need to get a desk job, this has got to be aging me!” Their marriage officer was the beautiful Honourable Margaret Ramsay-Hale, BSc Econ. former Chief Magistrate of the Cayman Islands. They exchanged vows, exchanged rings had a lovely kiss… and they were off down the aisle as their guests and families threw confetti. To end the cocktail hour everyone released a wish lantern, which is so romantic! The reception was amazing with catering by Mise En Place so the food was brilliant, the cakes, DJ Craig, the dancing, the late night snack…. fish tea and jerk and finally a serenade by Jason… Ram Goat Liver! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT!!!!

Angilynn and Robert – 31 December 2011 – Grand Cayman Beach Suites

Posted in Recent Weddings, Trash The Dress, Wedding Customs show hide 2 comments

Angilynn and Robert decided to get married on New Years Eve! Their ceremony was at a local church and then we headed off for an elegant reception on the Rooftop of the Grand Cayman Beach Suites. During their first dances fireworks were going off early all around them and it was incredible to see them from this awesome location. Before midnight, all the guests went downstairs to the beach and lit wish lanterns that scattered the evening sky minutes before all the fireworks went off. WOW! what an end to an amazing day. Angilynn also had three dresses! After the meal she changed into a gorgeous gown and danced the night away, but left time to sneak away again to change into her third dress, a sexy red Chinese traditional wedding dress!  BUT that wasn’t all, Robert and Angilynn met back with me later to do a few Trash the Dress pictures….. (Angilynn did not “trash” get her dress even the slightest bit dirty) but we had so much fun. You can see from the images how much fun this couple really are! I had to say okay Robert, give me serious one then we will do the goofy one!! hahahaha. I LOVE the chicken shot, so Cayman! Guys you totally rocked!!!! xxx

Lauren and Scott – 2 ceremonies – BIG PARTY!!! – lots of fun!

Posted in Recent Weddings show hide 1 comment

Lauren and Scott grew up in the same town just outside of Philadelphia and attended the same high school and college but didn’t meet until they were set up by mutual friends in 2005. Their friends claimed that they were perfect for each other and they couldn’t have been more right. They both always talked about moving away together and in June 2008 they moved to Grand Cayman and have loved it ever since. Scott proposed on Seven Mile Beach and they knew it would also be the perfect setting for their wedding.  A January wedding was planned in hopes that all their friends and family from Philadelphia could escape the cold and help celebrate with them on the beautiful island of Grand Cayman.  As they counted down the days until their 100 out of town guests to arrive, a major blizzard hit Philadelphia dropping 15 inches of snow!  This led to cancelled flights and left guests stranded in cities throughout the US. Lauren and Scott stayed positive and enjoyed the time they had with the people that did make it. Up until the ceremony started they still didn’t know if all guests had arrived. But somehow, someway everyone made it (some with just minutes to spare) which made the day even more exciting and memorable. Lauren and Scott exchanged vows on the beach at The Caribbean Club, watched a perfect sunset along side their loved ones and continued the celebration at Luca Restaurant for a night of dinner and dancing. It was a perfect way to begin their life as a married couple.
As the year anniversary approaches, Lauren and Scott will be preparing for their most precious gift of all.  A beautiful  baby, due in February.
